LADS DISPLAYING AGILITY
HAROLD WARSTLER
John Drohan, baseball writer on
The Evening Traveler, Boston, a newspaper of high standing in the east,
pays a neat compliment to Harold
"Rapp" Warstler in the issue of June
17- Writes Drohan:
One of the reasons the Red Sox
have been so successful in the recent
series with the Yankees might be attributed to a tiny little fellow at
shortstop who answers to the name
of Harold "Rabbit" Warstler. And if
Bob Quinn, who purchased this little
guy from the Indianapolis club of the
American Association a few years
ago for plenty of gold—the country
not having gone oil" the standard at
the time—had watched the series he
would have been mighty proud of
him. For when Rabbit was being
roundly censured for his small stature
and inability to hit the ball out of
the park, Quinn still contended that
be was the best defensive shortstop
in the American league and claimed
he would hit well enough for any club
to carry him along.
Size Is Handicap
And while Warstler always lias been
under a handicap due to his midget
size, it would appear the .club will go
a long way before it will find his superior. One of the proudest moments
of Quinn's life last winter was when
the official fielding averages of the
American league were published,
showing that Warstler had handled
more chances per game than any
other shortstop in the league. With
his customary eloquent gestures, Bob
said, "There's the answer as to why
1 have been strong for Warstler. Figures don't lie. And there they are."
During the winter, before Tom
Yawkey and Eddie Collins negotiated
for the purchase of the club, Quinn
wrote Warstler a friendly letter in
which he told him he could be one of
the greatest shortstops hi the country
if he were ambitious.
Evidently Warstler came to tbe
training camp at Sarasota witli that
idea in mind. Despite the fact that
the Red So.x had acquired from Clu-
cago Gregory Mulleavy, who had starred in the Coast league, Warstler
didn't alow it to bother him in his
business of making the position bis
own.
Mulleavy, being a bigger fellow,
with a good minor league batting average, had the edge, on general principles. He got away to a great start
in the exhibition games. But as the
pitching got better, Greg did a fade-
out that would have been the envy of
a movie lover. And he shuffled oil' to
Buffalo.

LITERARY CLUB
The Ladies' Literary club met on
Mondav evning with Mrs. Emma
Bonnell and Mrs. William Christman
as hostesses in the home of Mrs.
Christman. The program as scheduled was greatly enjoyed.
Miss Ethel Brown gave a "Travel
Talk." Miss Anna Metzger talked
about the "Panama Canal"; Miss
Esta Stoner spoke upon "Tbe Value
of Our Library To Our Town," and
Mrs. W. J. Evans gave a humorous
reading. Roll call was answered by

Charles played the saxophone and
Margaret accompanied him on the
piano.
Guests were Charles and Margaret
Messerly, Mrs. Max Messerly, Mrs.
M. A. Cossaboom, Mrs. George Shoemaker, Mrs. Ida Druckenbrod.
The hostesses served refreshments.
This is the last meeting of the club
until September.
ROTARY CLUB
Dr. A. R. Basinger was the. speaker
for the Rotary club during the regular meeting lield on Thursday evening in the Community Christian
church.
He spoke on "Subnormal People"
and enlarged upon tlie address given
•by Judge Harvey Ake a. few weeks
ago when he spoke on legislative
movements pertaining to such groups.
Dr. Businger's interesting message
aided materially in removing any
prejudices that might have existed in
the minds of the Rotarians against
such legislation.
Michael Chelpka, proprietor of the
Pennzoil Service Station was received
into the membership of the club under
the classification of "Refined Oi) Products, Distributing" and was officially
welcomed by the president, Lee T.
Lewis.

went on Tuesday morning to the Sanatorium in Cuyahoga Falls.
Mrs. Ebie has never recovered since
she was in an auto accident, The Sun
is informed, and her sufferings are
so great her physician, Dr. L. L.
Frick thought it wise to have ber
given special care.
The Rabel Dairies displayed a powerful batting attack and trimmed both
the Deckerd club of Waco and the
Princehorn Dairies of East Greenville
in their two week-end non-league
games.
Tlie Saturday games was by far
the best game of the two, as the
Rabels were out for the revenge for
the defeat handed them at the start
of the season by the Waco club.
Kd Warstler ' featured with three
hits out of four times at bat.
The Sunday game was a farce, the
Greenville club, with a very good record this season was no match for the
Rabels, although the Rabels pitching
was bad in several innings, their terrific batting offensive gave them a
wide margin.
Walt Sharkey, Rabels' ace, received
an offer to go to the Virginia league
which he readily accepted. If he
makes good the Rabels will be out
his services.
Lefty Deeds who was with Columbus in the association or Frank Chis-
mar who was with Wheeling in the
Mid-Atlantic league, will be available
to bolster the Rabel pitching staff.
Next Sunday the Rabels were
scheduled to play the St. Martha club
in Akron, but this game has been
postponed till later in the season, in
order to give the Martha's a chance
to play a game booked early in the
season, against the Homestead Grays.
The Rabels will be at home against
the Ohio Celtics, an industrial club

Residents of North Cantoii will do
well to keep in mind that it is against
the law lo set-off fireworks within
the limits of the village.
The American Legion stages a
pyrotechnic display each year for two
reasons: One, to give every man,
woman and child opportunity to see
real fireworks; two, In protect the
lives and property of the residents.
The display this year promises to
surpass previous events, tip-top
though they have been in every way.
Police To Keep Watch
The police have been instructed to
keep close watch on "shooters." As
the law has been in force for several
years no one can use the excuse that
they "did not know il is against the
law."
Exploding fireworks near barns is
a dangerous practice. A number of
farm buildings were destroyed in
Stark county and other counties in
; Ohio last year as a lesult of lire-
works.
Once Sold Openly
About seven years ago North Canton youngsters made merry with fireworks on the days and nights preceding the fourth of July. The explosives
were sold openly in several stores and
the sidewalks near the square resounded with crack, crack, crack!
Then it was that Fire Chief Joe
Smith, the Mayor, the insurance men,
members of Council, and other citizens decided it was time North Cantoii changed from a hick hamlet to
an orderly, sensible community.
Drastic ordinances were passed and
the danger from the "glorious fourth"
was at an end.

such items as forty-five pairs of black

an order which caused tlie Colt Arms
company to wonder wlio was starting
a re-, clution in Southern California.
d but happy hunch that
the Conimiiiiin lluihl-
y night, sixteen bo; s ami
i) had been to the < Villi,:'
Exposition al Chicago.
Schick, chaperone "f th ■
girls, had telephoned from Mnn.-field
tlial they were coming, and would bo
in about nine tliiity. Immediately the
Community Huilding had notified the
parents as lo the time of arrival.
At nine fifteen thev had begun to
assemble. At nine-thirty all were
there waiting for the litis. A few minutes later one said to another, "Isn't
it about time tliey were coming'.'" The
reply was "Look, there tliey come
now," and sine enough around the
corner from Portage street came the
bus with its tired but happ^ load.
There was a rush as soon as the
bus came to a stop. Parents rushing
to he tlie first to irreet their children
whom they had not seen since Monday, and the travelers rushed to see
who would be the first one oil' to meet
the parents.
Everybody greeted everybody else
in one grand reunion. Then a sorting
moment while each found his own,
and if one were to try to get a story
from whal was heard, he would have
a hopeless task. All talking at one.',
and all saying a different tiling, altho
all were talking about the same thing,
the tilings they had seen at the Imposition.
For some time tliey \ isited, and
then quietly they began lo each go his
own way to continue the story bv bis
own fireside, or from his own front
porch. We have a hunch though that
the greatest part of the story remained to he told the next morning after
a sleep. We have a hunch that it still
isn't all told and won't he for some
time.
The best summary a bystander
could get was something like this:
"It was some show, dad, you
should have gone along." "We we relate getting
wake up
you should have seen," etc., etc
"You should have seen the big prehistoric animals. They moved and
everything."
"Do you remember what we were
looking at in the descriptions before
we left'.' Well, we saw that, and it
was a lot better than it sounded like
it would be."
., ..... "Say, mother, vou should have seen
town Hill i tlu, clltest c0|ony of lni,|K(,ts. We went
■ in. It was a side show but it was
j worth seeing."
I "Mother, we heard the best eon-
i cert. We went down town to the audi-
i toriuiin one evening to hear the Clii-
i eago Symphony. It was wonderful. I
wish you could have been there.''
"Vou know, dad, 1 wanted to stav
! in the hall of science all the time,
i They have a big transparent man
there, and a machine that shows the
changes during the ages, and everything like that. And the planetarium
I was grand. I don't remember much
I about it 1 can tell, but it was wonder-
, fill to see, and makes a fellow feel
,' how small lie is and how short the
J few ,\ ears of life are."
I "Vou should have been down to the
| travel and transport building. There
are all the modes of conveyance there
J from the pony rider to the airplane,
; and all the old models of trains and
i sleeping cars, and engines, clear down
' to the very latest.
"I wish you could have seen Chicago from the top of the lower,:

lights looked like pin points, and people looked like ants crawling around."
"The electrical building was won-,
derful, and the radio section, and we

LADS DISPLAYING AGILITY
HAROLD WARSTLER
John Drohan, baseball writer on
The Evening Traveler, Boston, a newspaper of high standing in the east,
pays a neat compliment to Harold
"Rapp" Warstler in the issue of June
17- Writes Drohan:
One of the reasons the Red Sox
have been so successful in the recent
series with the Yankees might be attributed to a tiny little fellow at
shortstop who answers to the name
of Harold "Rabbit" Warstler. And if
Bob Quinn, who purchased this little
guy from the Indianapolis club of the
American Association a few years
ago for plenty of gold—the country
not having gone oil" the standard at
the time—had watched the series he
would have been mighty proud of
him. For when Rabbit was being
roundly censured for his small stature
and inability to hit the ball out of
the park, Quinn still contended that
be was the best defensive shortstop
in the American league and claimed
he would hit well enough for any club
to carry him along.
Size Is Handicap
And while Warstler always lias been
under a handicap due to his midget
size, it would appear the .club will go
a long way before it will find his superior. One of the proudest moments
of Quinn's life last winter was when
the official fielding averages of the
American league were published,
showing that Warstler had handled
more chances per game than any
other shortstop in the league. With
his customary eloquent gestures, Bob
said, "There's the answer as to why
1 have been strong for Warstler. Figures don't lie. And there they are."
During the winter, before Tom
Yawkey and Eddie Collins negotiated
for the purchase of the club, Quinn
wrote Warstler a friendly letter in
which he told him he could be one of
the greatest shortstops hi the country
if he were ambitious.
Evidently Warstler came to tbe
training camp at Sarasota witli that
idea in mind. Despite the fact that
the Red So.x had acquired from Clu-
cago Gregory Mulleavy, who had starred in the Coast league, Warstler
didn't alow it to bother him in his
business of making the position bis
own.
Mulleavy, being a bigger fellow,
with a good minor league batting average, had the edge, on general principles. He got away to a great start
in the exhibition games. But as the
pitching got better, Greg did a fade-
out that would have been the envy of
a movie lover. And he shuffled oil' to
Buffalo.

movements pertaining to such groups.
Dr. Businger's interesting message
aided materially in removing any
prejudices that might have existed in
the minds of the Rotarians against
such legislation.

went on Tuesday morning to the Sanatorium in Cuyahoga Falls.
Mrs. Ebie has never recovered since
she was in an auto accident, The Sun
is informed, and her sufferings are
so great her physician, Dr. L. L.
Frick thought it wise to have ber
given special care.
The Rabel Dairies displayed a powerful batting attack and trimmed both
the Deckerd club of Waco and the
Princehorn Dairies of East Greenville
in their two week-end non-league
games.
Tlie Saturday games was by far
the best game of the two, as the
Rabels were out for the revenge for
the defeat handed them at the start
of the season by the Waco club.
Kd Warstler ' featured with three
hits out of four times at bat.
The Sunday game was a farce, the
Greenville club, with a very good record this season was no match for the
Rabels, although the Rabels pitching
was bad in several innings, their terrific batting offensive gave them a
wide margin.
Walt Sharkey, Rabels' ace, received
an offer to go to the Virginia league
which he readily accepted. If he
makes good the Rabels will be out
his services.
Lefty Deeds who was with Columbus in the association or Frank Chis-
mar who was with Wheeling in the
Mid-Atlantic league, will be available
to bolster the Rabel pitching staff.
Next Sunday the Rabels were
scheduled to play the St. Martha club
in Akron, but this game has been
postponed till later in the season, in
order to give the Martha's a chance
to play a game booked early in the
season, against the Homestead Grays.
The Rabels will be at home against
the Ohio Celtics, an industrial club
backed

Residents of North Cantoii will do
well to keep in mind that it is against
the law lo set-off fireworks within
the limits of the village.
The American Legion stages a
pyrotechnic display each year for two
reasons: One, to give every man,
woman and child opportunity to see
real fireworks; two, In protect the
lives and property of the residents.
The display this year promises to
surpass previous events, tip-top
though they have been in every way.
Police To Keep Watch
The police have been instructed to
keep close watch on "shooters." As
the law has been in force for several
years no one can use the excuse that
they "did not know il is against the
law."
Exploding fireworks near barns is
a dangerous practice. A number of
farm buildings were destroyed in
Stark county and other counties in
; Ohio last year as a lesult of lire-
works.
Once Sold Openly
About seven years ago North Canton youngsters made merry with fireworks on the days and nights preceding the fourth of July. The explosives
were sold openly in several stores and
the sidewalks near the square resounded with crack, crack, crack!
Then it was that Fire Chief Joe
Smith, the Mayor, the insurance men,
members of Council, and other citizens decided it was time North Cantoii changed from a hick hamlet to
an orderly, sensible community.
Drastic ordinances were passed and
the danger from the "glorious fourth"
was at an end.
